How to use the hotkey function in VB?

[Hybrixe 0]

I want to know how you can use the hotkeyset() function in VB. I don't want to know it using AutoITX but just normal VB. I use VB 2010. Thanks!

Declare Auto Function RegisterHotKey Lib "user32.dll" (Byval handle As IntPtr, ByVal id As Integer, ByVal fsModifier As UInt32, ByVal vk As UInt32) As Boolean

You will also need a window. You watch the window messages for the hotkey message and that lets you know it was pressed.

Keep in mind this is not as simple as AutoIt makes it out to be.
